Cinema Paradiso is sort of an autobiographical story of filmmaker Giuseppe Tornatore. It is a classic Italian film. in the scenes of the movie theater, clips of early classics are shown. It is interesting to see the change in movies from that time. As the industry has grown, movies are not such a rarity, and thus society’s involvement has also expanded, and become more of a quotidian thing. It is also interesting to see the changes in what is allowed to be shown; as the movie is set in old past times, a preacher decided what was allowed an what was not permitted to be shown.
